Thanks for sharing and of course fantastic work.

Jim .....
I got the T/U with motors from ArtisticHobbies.com in Texas. Very good people, prices, delivery. It was a replacement part for a 1/24 scale R/C tank. I don't know the manufacturer or part number. The latex I used for the tire is from Micro-mark. I am really happy with it and I still have good molds that are very old ... and still good. They have a thinner, rubber to rubber mold release and color pigments also.

P.S. I just remembered. It was a VS tank product.
